Eldest Uncle had written the letter and he sounded very guilty.

He was the oldest son and at his age, he still had to depend on his family for financial assistance and increase their burden. He felt bad.

But the situation over there was just too tough. Also, the girl’s family was very poor.

Her family were all scholars, and they did not really know how to farm. After many years of hard labor, they were all in poor health, and one or two of them had even starved to death.

The girl had a younger brother, and the entire family went hungry. They had only done a little better after they met Eldest Cousin and had him to help them.

Of the food that the Gu family had sent, Eldest Uncle’s family had eaten some and given some to the girl’s family.

Her family members were quite nice, but they were very poor. So for the past year or so, Eldest Uncle’s family had been busy just trying to survive. They could not obtain any nicer things for the wedding.

When they read this, Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu’s hearts ached.

Their eldest son’s family had suffered so much. How could they not feel sad?historical

Since their eldest grandson was willing to help the girl’s family, of course they were happy to help. He would only be willing to assist them if they were worth helping.

Gu Chonghua immediately said, “Quick, prepare some things to mail to them. We can slowly prepare the things for the wedding, but we must send some food first. We must send it immediately.”

Wen Ruyu’s tears fell in her grief. “I’ll go, I’ll go. I’ll go right now.”

There was a small parcel with the letter.

Eldest Uncle’s family certainly could not afford grain, meat or food. They had sent some herbs back.

Two pieces of ginseng and two pieces of Ganoderma. They were not very large but looked fairly good. There was also another small packet of dried medicinal herbs.

Their family were doctors, so these things were probably useful to them. So Eldest Uncle’s family had collected some and sent it back.

The ginseng and the Ganoderma were supplements for the two old folks.

Gu Qingyao was not too interested. She confidently looked at the introduction in the letter and the girl’s name. She finally confirmed that this was the name of her sister-in-law in her previous life.

The sister-in-law in her previous life was exactly as described in this letter. She was actually very pretty and was rather scholarly. One could tell at a glance that she was a cultured young girl, and her temperament was particularly good.

She was very gentle and later on, she and Eldest Cousin were a very loving couple.

She did indeed have a younger brother who became quite capable when he grew up. He had always gotten along well with Eldest Cousin. He treated Eldest Cousin and his wife’s children as his own.

Gu Qingyao was delighted. Eldest Cousin was finally getting married. Hehe!

In her previous life, she had been too secluded, so she did not know what had happened to many of her family members during that interval. At this time in her previous life, she had been emotionally unstable.

She had only met this sister-in-law many years later when the Gu family was doing well.

She did not know much about this sister-in-law in her earlier years. She had spent most of her time on her studies, especially painting, calligraphy and medicine. At one point, she had traveled everywhere with Mo Beihan. Sometimes she was away for two or three months without returning.

But she still had a good impression of this sister-in-law.

Gu Qingyao smiled and said, “Father, I’ll prepare some things to mail to them. I’ll be going to the provincial capital in a while! I’m going to get some things. When I’m there, I’ll buy some nicer things and send them to Eldest Brother.”

Gu Yunshen smiled and nodded. “Fine!”

This time, Gu Qingyao was much more daring in her giving. In the past, she was not sure what the situation was like over there, so she had been rather reserved when she sent things to her Eldest Uncle’s family. She did not dare to send too much.
